Ok, so as you read this is more of a poll then a question. I know I'll make the final decision, but I'd like to know what others think and it's 5:30am and I'm curious. Also, thanks in advance to y'all for giving a reply- it's much appreciated.
I have a 1973 VW Beetle. The bug is lowered, very low and barely off the ground if that makes any difference. I bought it like that thinking I could easily raise it like I had been told. Apparently not! haha.
1.) The All American Bug:
Paint- front end blue with white stars(sparkling coat) with red and white stripes going towards the back. Inside paint will be red with a white headliner and a blue dash. The seats would be white with silver dog tags on the back, custom made with my brothers name on one and my papa's on the other. the back seat will be white as well with reg. dog tags. The seat belts will be blue as well. All the carpet will be grey and it'll have all chrome pieces. Then I'm going to have dog tags made, one for my bro, 2 for each papa and 2 for each dad and hang them on a short chain for the mirror.
Now on to the second option...
2.) Flower Power Bug
I'd like crazy/funky colors with kinda hippie flowers and butterflies on it. I'd like the base coat to be blue and the fenders yellow. the inside the paint blue with a white headliner. Seats white with flowers. Carpets- grey and all chrome.

Thanks everyone!
I dunno if this makes a diff. or not either, but I already have two support the troops stickers on the back windows. I'd also have a flag hanging on it somewhere for either option.
O yes, the shifter will be the chrome grenade as well.
